Charlton wanted to prepare for a playing comeback with the side he managed, Preston North End, and Jock Stein was happy to field him in the testimonial game for Liverpool defender Ron Yeats at Anfield on May 13, 1974. Celtic won 4-1 with goals by Charlton, aged 36, Vic Davidson, Bobby Lennox and Harry Hood. Sub Tommy Tynan scored for Liverpool. The starting line-ups were:
LIVERPOOL - Lawrence, Smith, Lindsay, Thompson, Yeats, Cormack, Hall, Hunt, St John, Heighway, Callaghan.
CELTIC - Connaghan, McNamara, Brogan, Murray, McNeill, McCluskey, Hood, Davidson, Charlton, Callaghan, Lennox. Do you find this valuable?

After the match Charlton said that Bobby Lennox was one of the best players he had ever played with. "I would love to have carried him around with me in my back pocket. What a player he is!" Do you find this valuable?
